Student video

We have chose this video to put on our blog as it is similar to ours as it has flashbacks and also uses green screen and performance.

Re-Shot Flashbacks

We have re-shot the green screen section as the last time it didn't work as well as we liked. We sat further away from the way this helped as there is very little green left around the singer. We feel this has worked very well.

Test Shot

For one part of the song we used greenscreen to put the singer in the corner of the shot as though she was thinking and remembering flashbacks of herself and her ex. We have shot this however it wasn't as effective as we thought as it as fuzzy green around the side we are going to re-shoot this scene wearing different clothing so the green is no longer there and we are also going to make the singer sit further away from the wall this should help.
